A translation from the Russian Of
az important areicle, supposed by
some TO be from the famous Step
MAX, on labor agitation, has just
been published here. Ii takes an
unique view of the tendency of
the labor movement throughout
the world. The writer claims that
in nearly every country where
discomfort is rife among the mass.
eS less attention is beng paid to
the wages in question than form
erly, and more inquiry is being
made in regard to the relation Of
the people to the lands The land
question, IN fact. is now " the con
slant factern in the labor agita-
tion of the world, whatever local
variations there may be as to
additional demands. The Nihilists
in their original platform made
the restoration of the old sclayo-
mic systems of community in land
a leading demand. They left it In
abeyance for time, but are now
Vigorously pushing it to the front
again, and the writer declares
that mach of the apparent quies'
cence of Nihilists lately is explain
ed bv the fact that the active mem-
bers Of the party are devoting
their energies to arousing in the
masses q determination to strike
blow at the proper time for the
restoration of the Mir, and the ab.
clifton of the onerous tax imposed
upon the village communities BY
aud since the Emancipation ukase
of Alexander 2nd, in 1861. The
leaders have become convinced
that to slay Czar now and then
will do no good, unless the people
are educated up to Ii capacity of
local self government, such as the
Mir formerly represented. They
are therefore .postponing Czar
killing till a more enlightened sea.
son. They regard the existing
Mir as in no sense representa-
tive of what was so called.
The writer alleges that among
the German Socialists, the theory
that much distres els due to the
fact that the peoples rights IN the
land have been usurped is
assuming Importance. The action
of the trades congress u few days
ago in demanding a tax on land,
which would finally result in the
people owning it, seems to Justify
the authors statement Of the
growth of this idea. He alludes
to the prominence of the land
question in Ireland, and the Agra
rian agitation among the Cr0fterf
of the Scottish Isles, but singu
larry enough does not give these
the Importance which he assigns
to the Russian and German move
ment above referred to. He says
the irish movement is not towarC
community of land ownership
and is, therefore, not Il revival OF
natural lines, but new idea with
out a history sanction. lie attri
buted great Importance to th'
movement in America. The grea
fault of previous schemes of com
mune land ownership he says, Il
avoided by the system of taxa
tion up to rental value proposed
by the American agitators. 1t il
practically the same plan 6dvoca
ted by the English thinker, Her
bert Spencer; and is probably th'
only point on which tho grea
